Why is it not accurate? I believe it's because of what I said. At one time the SSDF rating was tied to human ratings. Also why do they occasionally "adjust" the ratings by subtracting 100 points? It's to theoretically bring it more in line with human ratings. The comparison is inevitable. The fact that it is not accurate will not stop people from trying to find out how strong their computer is compared to their own rating. All of this is just my opinion of course! Regards, Jim
